Repeal the 2nd? Is that all? Other Common Sense Changes We NEED to make

Repeal the 2nd? Is that all? Other COMMON SENSE changes we need to make

(written very quickly, as a word puke, and reflect my opinions based on what I see)

So many people are calling for more infringement upon, or the total repeal of, the second amendment to our United States Constitution. They want this because a very small percentage of our population has yielded to violent criminal actions. Up front let me say I am totally opposed to either of these actions and firmly believe that full gun rights should be restored to every citizen of the United States. I look forward to that happening, but will not be holding my breath in the near future.

One thing I have noticed is that a great deal of violence and death in our country and world occurs because of the individual religious beliefs that are held. Because people lash out violently against Muslims, are attacked by religious groups and it seems our various religions cannot get along, I think we should ask our government to settle on one religious system for our country. The government could regulate the location of the facilities, doctrines, holy books, service times and all other required religious activities, including paying the staff salaries and budget. Makes common sense and should reduce or eliminate religious disagreements. The government would of course provide preprinted scripts for use in these facilities to prevent variation and monitors would attend to ensure compliance.

I also am disturbed by the political and personal twist we find in our news organizations. We often hear about “fake news” and unfortunately find out far too often the news was indeed false, or not reported completely. Perhaps we could have a government agency review all of the proposed news stories before they are released to the public. This agency would have the power to check for accuracy and “black out” section that are found incorrect or non-compliant. Sounds reasonable.

I also was hurt by the actions of our fellow citizens who chose to protest for gun restrictions and left their locations full of trash and debris. It brings to mind the protests of BLM, ANTIFA and other protests over the years that resulted in citizens harmed or killed, law enforcement officers hurt or killed, police vehicles overturned or burned, buildings vandalized, property stolen and neighborhoods set on fire. It seems reasonable to limit the number of people who participate in these types of protests to 10 people. 10 people could be managed fairly easily, their safety and the security of their location could be safely ensured. Sure, movies, plays, football games, school and other activities would need to be cancelled, but this is a small price for safety. It is simply the reasonable course of action.

Oh, wait, we will need to hire many new federal, state and local law enforcement agents and bring in military resources to enforce our new safety and security protocols and it would be an impossible task to provide food and housing for these government agents and soldiers so you may be required to open up your home for housing and provide three meals for them.

There may be many people detained because they will rebel against the general welfare of their community so the jails and court system may be overloaded. Preliminary hearings for bail, evidence submission, etc will need to be eliminated and offenders should plan on being held for years before their trial.

These are necessary and common-sense changes to our Constitution to provide for our safety.

Do I really believe these actions will occur? No, but I do believe that there are people in our society that do want to steer our country in these directions.

Why do I not fear them right now?

Because of the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America
